These little pork patties are packed with so much flavor from fresh sage, thyme, parsley, ginger, and a warm hint of Ceylon cinnamon that you won't miss anything about the store-bought breakfast sausage aisle. Most commercial sausages rely on fillers, additives, or fermented ingredients that can sneak yeast into your morning routine — here, every single ingredient is clean and straightforward. Ground pork gets mixed by hand with garlic, turmeric, and freshly grated ginger, which means the seasoning is evenly distributed without any shortcuts or mystery components. The coconut oil gives the patties a gorgeous, deep golden crust that's crispy on the outside while staying juicy all the way through. Pressing them into uniform rounds helps them cook evenly, and a quick check with an instant-read thermometer takes all the guesswork out of knowing when they're done. They're equally at home on a weekend brunch plate or meal-prepped ahead for busy weekday mornings. Simple, satisfying, and genuinely delicious without a single ingredient that gives you pause.

Combine the ground pork, garlic, ginger, turmeric, Ceylon cinnamon, sage, thyme, parsley, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix with your hands until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the meat, about 1 minute — stop as soon as the mixture is uniform.
Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions (about 1.3 oz / 37g each) and press each into a flat round patty roughly 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
